Peepsi does suck so I think that one day everyone should bow before Coke : D , and if you don't like my opinion then you can just say...ummm. You don't like my opinion.

It's just soda. There are more important things to worry about. I prefer Pepsi. Others Coke. Ultimately, in the turning of the Wheel, it means nothing.

EDIT: [quote]sector0 ... Then why did you create the thread?[/quote]

Simple answer... To try to prevent this topic from hijacking the "We love you Forum Moderator!" thread. It seemed to work for the most part.

Thanks for the lock FM. It was time for this thread to die.

Speaking of wheels: this thread has now come full-circle. All good things must come to an end.

You can do anything with Coke, AND it tastes good!

you cant clime a tree using coke. You cant smask full coke cans on your head.. (well, i assume that cause you cant smash full beer cans you cant smash coke. )

Get a drunk. Get him uber drunk. Give him a pile of empties and tell him you'll give him $20+ if he smashes all them on him head. switch an empty with a full.

Okay, what are your views on this universe shattering debate?

Is Choke the real thing, or only good for removing rust and corrosion?

Is Pepsi the choice of a new generation, or a just an anachronisim from a past generation?

Come... Let us debate this ago old question.

Pepsi sucks.
Diet pepsi even more so.

Coke rules.

Hmm... let's see if I can make a more articulated argument against Choke:

Things you can do with Coca-Cola:

(Excerpted from http://drs.yahoo.com/S=2766679/K=%22things+to+do+with+coke%22/v=2/SID=e/l=WS1/R=1/H=0/*-http://www.angelfire.com/me3/Ritis/Kitchen/Coke.html There are plenty of others.)

To clean a toilet:
Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet.
Let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then flush clean.
The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous China.
(No scrubbing!!)

To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers:
Rub the bumper with a crumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.

To clean corrosion from car battery terminals:
Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.

To loosen a rusted bolt:
Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.

To bake a moist ham:
Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan; wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake.
Thirty minutes before the ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy. (this one actually doesn't sound too bad but it will probably eat through the pan if it sits too long)

To remove grease from clothes:
Empty a can of Coke into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle in your washing machine. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains.

It will also clean road haze from your windshield.

And YOU drink this shite?

Yep! I like the flavor... :P

Vanilla Coke is waaay better than Vanilla Pepsi. Although neither comes close to the sweet taste of IBC cream soda.
Oct 10, 2003 Pyro link
Mmmm... Cream soda... I can't say I like either vanilla Coke or vanilla Pepsi...

And people smoke ciggertes. They contain: Toilet bowl cleaner, rat poison, other stuff, and other stuff.

Just because an item is can be used to do something doesn't mean you should stop using that item because it has more then one use! Citric acid is used in cleaners. We still eat oranges don't we?

And well, this must be what is raceing through paedric's mind right now.
PEPSI DOES NOT SUCK. COKE GIVES YOU A NASTY AFTER TASTE,WHICH ISN'T GOOD BREATH.SO I THINK YOU SAVE LESS WITH PEPSI BEACAUSE YOU DON'T NEED TO BUY ANY TIC-TAC'S OR ALTOIDS.COKE SUCKS,IT REALLY,REALLY SUCKS LIKE ASS!!!!!!!!
(just some obscure post i found on some obscure forum)

I think *SOMEONE* has had MORE than enough caffine and nicotine for one day.

Did you know:

In many states (in the USA) the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coca-Cola in the truck to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.

To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial truck must use the Hazardous Material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.

The distributors of coke have been using it to clean the engines of their trucks for about 20 years!

From: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/ww2/A1282574

"Not every country agrees on the flavour of coke. For instance, sometimes in Mexico, Coca Cola will have a distinct lemon-lime flavour not generally associated with cola. One researcher succinctly summed up Germany's Coca Cola-

'In Germany, I will go for coke any day. However I feel that in the USA, Pepsi comes closer to the taste of German coke, while the coke there (in the US) makes my stomach upset and makes me belch.'"

So, if you live outside the US, it is possible that you are not drinking the same version of Choke as someone in the states.


From: http://members.tripod.com/~Barefoot_Lass/cola.html

More hosehold uses for Choke (You just knew it had to be good for SOMETHING):

"Spray an inexpensive cola on your grass once a month for super green grass which remains greener than other lawns throughout the fall and winter months. This really works! Also, for green grass and no bugs, combine: 1 can of coke, 1 cup of ammonia and 1/4 cup of dish soap. Spray on grass once a month."

"...in Australia it is well known that the best way to remove oil stains from concrete driveways or garages is to pour on coke, let it soak then hose off - Viola!"

"To start up your compost pile start with straw, lawn waste, old leaves, and in the middle add a can of coke. Put it near where you can turn it easily once a month and add water but remember, you don't want to make it too soggy! After a few months the coke will turn it into usable compost."

"In the winter when your windshield ices up, just pour coke over it and it will go away instantly! "

"Pour Coke down your drain once a month to keep it from clogging."

Coke does give you the nasty after taste. Coke is also very acidic. However, Coke has more caffine and sugar than pepsi. Therefore, coke is better if you hate sleep.

However. Pepsi tastes goodish. Pepsi also chases down all forms of alcohol well. And gives you a good aftertaste after drinking with alcohol.

Thing is, the avergae american refers to cola as coke.

"Spray an inexpensive cola on your grass once a..."

He said cola the first time, therefor this one can be discounted as something to do specifically with coke.

Coke goes better with drinks. I prefer pepsi as a non alcholic beverage.


I drink more coke then pepsi.
